What types of regulations of smoking in public places should the legal system impose?


 I think the legal system should have regulation laws on smoking in public places to a point of meeting half way. I do not think smoking should be allowed in doors unless it is inside a bar. But I do think that it should be allowed out doors in a designated smoking area. I only am for this because smoking is not something a person has to do its their choice if they choose to smoke. Smoking is not very good for you health and people who choose not to smoke should not be exposed to second hand smoke when they go out places.

Do "beauty" contests (Mr. America, Miss America, etc.) serve any purpose in society?

I think that the Mr. and Miss America beauty contest do not serve any purpose in society. I don't think that anyone should be judge on anything just by how they look. The contest doesn't mention that it revolves completely on looks, but I have noticed that all the winners and contestants for that matter are all good looking people. I don't see what purpose it has in society because once someone wins the contest you never hear about him or her again. They don't do any good for society and society doesn't benefit from beauty contest. If anything I think it makes majority of society feel bad for themselves that they can't look like the men and women in the contest.

Should a rating system be required for song lyrics?


I believe that different song lyrics should have a rating system. There are many different varieties of music and performers out there. Some people may find different kinds of music inappropriate or may take offense to lyrics of a song. There should be a rating system so other people know what kind of music it is before they try to listen. Although I love all different kinds of music and find that lyrics to a song is expressive, some other people see it in different ways and should not be at risk of being offended or exposed to something they do not want to hear.
